I did today a little research about grinders of Czech famous brand “Porkert”. I’m actually looking for popyseed grinder and universal grinder. Unfortunately the company with history over 130 years failed bankruptcy and the grinders are available only at collectors or as a Asian duplication, which is not what I’m looking for… This short introduction occurred to me in a context of another Czech brand Remoska (electric cooker – the best kept secret in the Czech Republic - everybody’s grandmother in the Czech Republic had one…) and I got two pieces, which I’m regularly using in my kitchen. For us, who are not cooking daily for 10+ people is the north American type of oven simply too big. Wicked tongues claims, that is because we need to bake 30lbs Thanksgiving turkey once a year and that is the reason, why we need such a big ovens… ha ha ha.
And one of the typical recipe for Remoska (but is is of course great for any type of pans or ovens) is Czech Brown Betty with Vanilla Curd. In the filling will be still missing grounded nuts, but I hope I will get somehow my Porkert UM75.
Ingredients:
some leftover breakfast rolls or buns (but it is easy and great to make it form e.g.blueberry bagels)250g curd (from store or home made)
1 egg yolk
1 vanilla sugar
some slices of butter
1/2 cup milk
1 apple
raisins, (or dry cranberries, blueberries, cherries, nuts – anything what you will prefer)
pinch of ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Slices of rolls or bagels dip into milk and place in pot inlaid with slices of butter.
2. Spread curd (mixed with egg yolk and vanilla sugar) on the layer of slices rolls or bagels.
3. Sprinkle with some dry fruits or nuts.
4. Make so many layers as the pot is full or from all remaining ingredients.
5. The last layer can be sprinkle with shredded apple and ground cinnamon and some slices of butter. Bake 25 minutes in the oven - 180°C (350°F).
